    I wish that video would have gone on another 10 seconds. The funny thing is it looked like after the accident, both of them got up and it looked like at least one of them was dead set on starting back where he left off. Have to admire the effort and determination; after getting slammed by 2000 lbs of metal, to just shake it off and try to finish the job at hand, now THAT'S dedication...

    Russian "Ghost Car"

    I'm kind of inclined to think it's a video camera error. But it does look weird.

    You can see the car's headlights reflecting off the body of the ghost car. Where the he!! did it come from? Furthermore, what was being said by whoever strung that together. Inquiring minds would like a translation please.

    This one does not end in tears. Volvo trucks have amazing brakes.

    I think the trucker's observation and reflexes were even sharper than the Volvo's brakes.

    So he's got a snorkel air intake, but does he have a bilge pump for the cabin? Sturdy engineering is a great skill of the Russians but fine detail, like seals that work, can get missed.

    Yup, if it were easy, everybody would be doing it. Where's Howard Cosell when you need exceptional color commentary?
